Abstract

In this paper, we consider harvest-to-jam based secure multi-hop cluster multi-input multi-output networks, where a multi-antenna source sends its data to a multi-antenna destination via multi-antenna intermediate cluster heads. The data transmission at each hop is realized by using transmit antenna selection and selection combining techniques, and is overheard by a multi-antenna eavesdropper using selection combining. In addition, joint antenna and jammer selection methods are performed at each hop to reduce quality of the eavesdropping channels. The cluster members can harvest wireless energy from the previous cluster head, and use the harvested energy for emitting jamming noises on the eavesdropper. We propose three cooperative jamming algorithms, named best antenna and best jammer selection (BA-BJ), random antenna and all jammer selection (RA-AJ) and all antenna and all jammer selection (AA-AJ). Then, end-to-end outage probability and intercept probability of the proposed algorithms are evaluated via both simulation and analysis, under impact of hardware impairments, over Rayleigh fading channel.
